Poetry and Death in the Arena
Categorizing this short film (8min 45sec) has been a challenge. While watching a bullfight in Madrid, Jordan wondered what the bull would be saying to us if he knew what his fate was. Or perhaps did he actually know his fate? Logically, no, of course not. But the scenario struck as both violent and poetic. The visuals of this film are simply the bullfight; the audio - over the noise of the fight - is Kahlil Gibran's well-known "The Beauty of Death XIV".
